Not strictly the right forum, but at least it's geographically appropriate...
I have a MY00 UK turbo coming up for it's 45,000 mile service. Anyone know of anywhere around Bournemouth/Winchester who would do a good job?
Would prefer a main dealer for FSSH but would consider a good independent.
Also - I know this is the cambelt biggie - what's the damage likely to be?
Cheers,
Mark.

Try North Motor Company 01962 771331
They are located on the A272 about 7 Miles from Winchester
They are a small independant dealer who specialise in Subaru, Isuzu & Saab.
Its run by 2 brothers who were formerly the Mechanics with Crossroads Garage prior to the new owner taking over & them loosing the Subaru Franchise.
They serviced my STI for a couple of years. The service was always 100% & the bills were reosnable. Be warned they have a good reputation locally & therefore you need to book early or be disapointed

Sparshatts are crap IMHO. The Dorset Subaru dealer converted toporsche and hasn't been replaced. When I had my MY99 I used Triton Motorsport at hurn Airport. They are a rally specailist and know their stuff. VERY well priced too, my 45k service was near half of dealer price. They do a number of Evo's / Impreza's.
Other than that its a trip to Vale motors who are good. Theres a list of dealers on the Subaru homepage.

Don't use Hughes on Ashley Rd, bunch of winkers!
Chappelgate were not high on my xmas card list either.
Go further a field and try Barretts in Canterbury or Roger Clarks in Leicester, both nice places to visit too.
Heard good things about Triton, went and had a look out there but have not yet used them. Which reminds me the old boat is due some new goo.
